I would recommend at least 10A for A8 http://www.ctek.com/gb/en/chargers/MXS%2010 |
From specs for 5A model:
Battery capacity 1.2–110Ah up to 160Ah for maintenance.
The one I linked I have had for more than a year and my battery is monstrous 110ah AGM from Varta. The 5A model will charge battery overnight and it's very compact. 10 hours is usually enough. It also knows when to stop charging, which is the most important feature. I have never fully discharged my battery, so may take longer to charge if battery is fully discharged. It is lightweight, small and has carrying bag, so I simply keep it in car all the time.
P.S. I also purchased rubber case/bumper, which is absolutely great:
